Day 4

Today we checked alot of things off our list we wanted to do, but it was most of your typical tourist stuff. We started the day off by taking the subway to the Empire State Building to save some walking. The Lines were long and it was crowded! The boys thought it was cool but were happy to be done with it.

The main lobby


Happy boys?!?


The view.


More happy cute and happy boys!

When we finally came out of the building we were all hungry so we made a quick stop at McDonald's. I am generally not a fan of McD's but we quickly found the one meal our family could eat in NY city for $20. 2/ 20 piece chicken nuggets, 2 large fries, 2 large drinks. This was ont the only time in the city we had this for lunch.With bellies full and everyone a little happier. We headed out to catch the bus.

Jaxon wanted to see Madison Square Garden. So Jim took Jaxon and Carson for a quick walk to check it out. They were doing some construction so they just looked around for a few minutes.


but it was enough for Jaxon.





They caught back up with the rest of us at the bus stop. We got on the hop on hop off bus for the downtown tour.
Macy's



Canal Street and Chinatown

A 911 memorial.

People hang tiles on this fence in memory of loved ones that died in 911.

The Trump World Tower

It started to rain while we were on the bus. Mason and Easton thought the rain ponchos they gave us were pretty cool.

After a long hot and Humid day. We headed back to our hotel. We made a quick stop at a place called Rays Pizza for dinner. We definately liked Luigis better. We went to the hotel and relaxed for a bit then Jim and I got a way for a bit to run in Central Park. Which was the highlight of my day.

We loved how when you get into the park it was rather relaxing.

Another fun day!
